Figures from the Motor Insurance Bureau of Ireland highlight the increase in claims by uninsured drivers nationally.
The drop in claims comes solely in Laois.

That's a jump of 30%.
The number of claimants remained unchanged in Offaly leaving the total number in the Midlands at 89.
Down from 97 the year before.
Nationally - the total was more than 2,500.
7 in 10 of those were made by uninsured drivers.
